Bits and Bucks: Modeling complex systems by information flow
This paper presents a general method for modeling and characterizing complex systems in terms of flows of information together with flows of conserved or quasi-conserved quantities such as energy or money. Using mathematical techniques borrowed from statistical mechanics and from physics of computat...
